QUOTE(Noryume @ May 1 2014, 01:28 AM) Hello guys. Just want to ask about the multimedia system of the advance alza. For video playback, does it only allowed to play dvd only? No other mean to play using usb video? Yes you can play video files saved in your USB flash drive with following conditions: 1) max resolution supported 720x480 2) The video format has to be AVI or MPEG 3) Video codec has to be MPEG4 or XVID

QUOTE(itekderp @ Sep 5 2014, 05:42 PM) New here, haven't had time to read through this thread completely. But may I ask... If any of you had trouble navigating uneven surfaces on your Alza? I found that it tends to cause loss of stability in mine, even after switching my tyres. As if there's a sudden loss of traction. Just wondering how is the "uneven surface". Do you mean the road is with moderate size holes which the whole contact point of front tire could sit in? Or do you mean the road is scattered with chip stone?

QUOTE(itekderp @ Sep 10 2014, 05:06 PM) It's a 1st generation, since launch. I thought about suspension problems too, but haven't had a chance to check it. Was going to ask them to test on my previous visit, but they said nothing about it. Maybe I'll ask them to test properly again this upcoming service. Try to do some troubleshooting with your suspension. Push your car down with some force. If you can barely push it down, absorber is dead. If it bounce back very fast or continue to bounce after lifting your weight, you have a weak absorber. Test it on both front and back. Btw, I guess you did check your tires pressure where it is not over pressured. This post has been edited by therain01: Sep 11 2014, 01:29 AM

The user's manual shows Alza need 3.1L of engine oil for each change with filter. Any idea if it is accurate?

QUOTE(itekderp @ Oct 17 2014, 10:54 AM) Some updates to my handling issues, been a while and 10k miles later... I've made a trip to the SC to check on my suspension thoroughly. Apparently they claim there's no issue with the suspension and could be the alignment. Which is actually just a shot in the dark, since I've had the same issue right after doing an alignment. For now the issue still persists, vehicle is unstable on uneven roads and traction loss is sometimes an issue. I've taken what a few of you have suggested, that it might be the vehicle's physics/weight distribution. So no solution for now, just have to drive a bit more carefully. my previous cars have all been sedans, so could it also be my driving style? Much thanks to all the input I've gotten from this thread, thank you all who replied!
P.S.: Strangely, vehicle handles better in the wet than under hot conditions. Maybe try take corner in such way since you like the "wet condition" feel. Before entering corner try to steer to opposite direction a little bit (15% or more) and press the brake lightly at the same time. Release the brake and steer to desired direction immediately. (Accelerate to gain back rear traction if you need to).

QUOTE(futra @ Dec 31 2014, 10:49 AM) Good morning, guys. My middle right side window can't seem to go down/up no matter whichever switch used/pressed e.g. driver's button and middle seat. All other windows can (driver, passenger, behind passenger), no problem at all. I feel like the button for that particular window is defect, or is it some short circuit? Sometimes I restart engine and it works. Just have to clean the "black spot" due to spark gap/aging. Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(futra @ Jan 5 2015, 05:05 PM) But simultaneously on the driver's side and the middle right side? Both buttons are unusable at the same time. Weird. I'll try cleaning up n see how it goes. Thanks anyway  Try with the middle right side one first. It is easier to dismantle and cheaper to replace if you happen to break the cover clip. Just use a test pen to remove the dark spot will do.

QUOTE(Kiefer @ Mar 2 2016, 10:58 AM) ya... have to follow... plus last time honda city cvt have problems especially the one go up genting..heard many prob. CVT is good for smoothness, fuel efficient... but not sure if with high torque engine or rough driving. In fact not only Honda city cvt 7 speed. Same goes to Honda jazz at that time. I owned a Honda city 2005 7 speed cvt years ago. Just before the end of warranty, I found the auto transmission is sometimes not as smooth as usual. I reported the symptom to Honda SC and they can't find any issue and my complain is recorded over the service receipt. The 7 speed cvt auto transmission started to fail 6 months after the warranty. I went to the usual SC with the receipt and they told me to complain to Honda PJ. I put up the complain to Honda PJ and waited for 1 month. Eventually they told me I can't claim for warranty because it does not break down during warranty. Replacing the cvt 7 speed will cost RM30K because they don't repair. I have no choice but to look for someone who knows how to repair CVT. Indeed many does not know how to repair CVT. Spent RM1800 to repair the CVT. Broke down again after 2 months. Return to the mechanic and top up few hundreds to replace other internal part. I get the car sold immediately after it was repaired for the second time. Oh did I mentioned Honda Jazz was having the same issue? There were 2 jazz owner having automatic transmission problem as well trying to claim warranty when I was in Honda PJ.

QUOTE(singk @ Apr 4 2016, 05:46 PM) the last gen honda cvt is using start up clutch like proton cars nowadays. and except nissan cefiro, honda jazz and city is one of the early models that introduce cvt to malaysian, so there's always many hiccups like putting in wrong ATF (that kill the gearbox in long run), playing it like a manual box (7 speed so syok, main aje la). cvt is good when you driving it in a gentle way. it's a piece of delicate item. My case was not related to the ATF anyway. It was under free service so the service is always on schedule over Honda SC. That's why the Honda pj fella in claim department were looking into my case, for a lengthy 1 month period and turn out I can't claim the warranty even though the complain was done during warranty period. I hardly play with the manual button indeed, even when overtaking cars. Well I did went outstation with the car though and to genting once. Cornering was one of the worst in the class. Serious understeering.

There are some very thin and tiny pieces of original llumar tinted chip of after removing the laminated road tax holder (not sure what should I call it. It's 2 pieces soft elastic plastic to sandwich the road tax) .
Can I know if anyone having the same issue like mine. If yes did you claimed the warranty? I have yet to check with the SC people though.

QUOTE(cleaner @ Apr 19 2016, 01:09 PM) Me change at kampung workshop, labor charge rm20 only Rm20 labor charge for replacing AT filter is indeed very cheap. That is about 30 mins work because they will need to drop the pan, then install new gasket and filter. This is what I'm getting charge for labor only. Normal very simple drain and fill ATF rm15 When replacing filter and gasket involved, it will cost rm60. Buying the filter is cheap. About RM30 at spare part shop nearby.

QUOTE(amad108 @ May 5 2016, 02:32 PM) hello alza user.. my friend's alza lost all the keys including spare keys.. so anyone can suggest what can be done ya? he already ask perodua how much to change one set alarm, its around rm2.7k.. too expensive i would say.. so anyone got any idea care to share here please.. Don't use existing alarm system and disable the immobilizer. Install a new alarm system . As for the key i know there is a shop who could duplicate a key even without the master key. But I can't remember if it is 100% success rate.
